Enhanced electrical impedance tomography via the Mumford–Shah functional

Luca Rondi, Fadil Santosa (2001)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We consider the problem of electrical impedance tomography where conductivity distribution in a domain is to be reconstructed from boundary measurements of voltage and currents. It is well-known that this problem is highly illposed. In this work, we propose the use of the Mumford–Shah functional, developed for segmentation and denoising of images, as a regularization. After establishing existence properties of the resulting variational problem, we proceed by demonstrating the approach in several...

Enrichissement des interpolations d’éléments finis en utilisant des méthodes sans maillage

Antonio Huerta, Sonia Fernández-Méndez, Pedro Díez (2002)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

Les méthodes sans maillage emploient une interpolation associée à un ensemble de particules : aucune information concernant la connectivité ne doit être fournie. Un des atouts de ces méthodes est que la discrétisation peut être enrichie d’une façon très simple, soit en augmentant le nombre de particules (analogue à la stratégie de raffinement h ), soit en augmentant l’ordre de consistance (analogue à la stratégie de raffinement p ). Néanmoins, le coût du calcul des fonctions d’interpolation est très...

Entropy solutions for nonhomogeneous anisotropic Δ p ( · ) problems

Elhoussine Azroul, Abdelkrim Barbara, Mohamed Badr Benboubker, Hassane Hjiaj (2014)

Applicationes Mathematicae

We study a class of anisotropic nonlinear elliptic equations with variable exponent p⃗(·) growth. We obtain the existence of entropy solutions by using the truncation technique and some a priori estimates.

Equivalence between lowest-order mixed finite element and multi-point finite volume methods on simplicial meshes

Martin Vohralík (2006)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

We consider the lowest-order Raviart–Thomas mixed finite element method for second-order elliptic problems on simplicial meshes in two and three space dimensions. This method produces saddle-point problems for scalar and flux unknowns. We show how to easily and locally eliminate the flux unknowns, which implies the equivalence between this method and a particular multi-point finite volume scheme, without any approximate numerical integration. The matrix of the final linear system is sparse, positive...

Equivalent Boundary Conditions for an Elasto-Acoustic Problem set in a Domain with a Thin Layer

Victor Péron (2014)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

We present equivalent conditions and asymptotic models for the diffraction problem of elastic and acoustic waves in a solid medium surrounded by a thin layer of fluid medium. Due to the thinness of the layer with respect to the wavelength, this problem is well suited for the notion of equivalent conditions and the effect of the fluid medium on the solid is as a first approximation local. We derive and validate equivalent conditions up to the fourth order for the elastic displacement. These conditions...

Error estimates for modified local Shepard’s formulas in Sobolev spaces

Carlos Zuppa (2003)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

Interest in meshfree methods in solving boundary-value problems has grown rapidly in recent years. A meshless method that has attracted considerable interest in the community of computational mechanics is built around the idea of modified local Shepard’s partition of unity. For these kinds of applications it is fundamental to analyze the order of the approximation in the context of Sobolev spaces. In this paper, we study two different techniques for building modified local Shepard’s formulas, and...
